British Columbia Rare Bird List: Casual and Accidental Records May 1, 2018: 4Th Edition Compiled by Rick Toochin, Jamie Fenneman, Paul Levesque and Don Cecile British Columbia Rare Bird List: Casual and Accidental Records May 1, 2018: 4th Edition compiled by Rick Toochin, Jamie Fenneman, Paul Levesque and Don Cecile. Comments? Contact E-Fauna BC The following is a rare bird list of the casual and accidental bird species that have been recorded within the boundaries of British Columbia. The taxonomic order follows the American Ornithological Society’s Fifty-eighth supplement to the A.O.S Check-list of North American Birds (Chesser et al. 2017). There are no previous publications available that list all of the records in one document. Skin specimens, photographs, tape recordings, and/or adequate field notes document many of these records, and with the introduction of digital cameras to birding in the early 2000s many records in the past 10 years have been photographed; however, field notes remain extremely valuable and, particularly as some of these records are solely substantiated by field notes. In the case of records with no supporting documentation, the records are listed as “hypothetical” and are separated from the better substantiated (“confirmed”) records. In addition, for several species the identification is correct, but the origin of the bird may be in question; these species are also considered “hypothetical” here. With the introduction of chat groups in 1999/2000, as well as personal birding blogs in the mid- to late 2000s, there are many more outlets to share and document birds today than in prior years. In many cases, digital photos accompany reported records, rendering the decisions of records committees almost obsolete for many sightings. These committees do play an important function in the review of records, however, as they provide an objective platform to help separate well-documented, and presumably accurate, records from those that are less reliable. This document is intended to provide an unbiased synopsis of all historical and recent rare bird sightings in the province without attempting to take on any of the roles that would normally pertain to a Rare Bird Records Committee. In the interest of providing the most complete and accurate information possible, all observer names have been included for each record, as well as any reference material that provides the information source from which the record has been extracted. Note that, although an attempt has been made to include all reported occurrences of the species in question, it is anticipated that additional sightings have occurred, but have been overlooked. Readers are encouraged to pass along any observations that are not included here, or any corrections to the information that has been provided, by contacting e-fauna BC. List on Document of Accidental / Casual Species The following species are considered casual or accidental within the boundaries of the Province of British Columbia. These species are very unusual to the region. To be considered a species of casual occurrence there have been between 20-100 records historically, often occurring at a particular time of year, but they normally are reported less than once a year (or are infrequently reported each year as is the case with some deep ocean pelagic species) and in some cases these birds are reported a few times in a ten year period. In the case of an accidental species there is often only a single record or up to 20 records with the occurrences of a species going several decades or much longer before reoccurring. These species are considered extremely unusual in British Columbia and are always in need of documentation. For any casual or accidental species to be put on this list they are considered far out of range and are extremely rare in their occurrence within the boundaries of British Columbia. For the purposes of consistency the first 100 records are listed on this list. If a species has more than 100 Provincial Records then it appears at the end of the list in a separate section. To make this list as complete as possible other records have been included on the list such as birds that are currently subspecies that have occurred as rarities to the Province, birds where the origin is unknown and hypothetical species where the identification might be correct, but there is only written field notes that document the record. Any species found on the list should always be documented when encountered, as they are extremely unusual at any time of year in British Columbia. Tropical Kingbirds are annual on the West Coast of Vancouver Island, but everywhere else in British Columbia this is considered a very rare bird to find. This bird was found and photographed at Jordan River during the peak period when this species is known to occur the month of October. This Tropical Kingbird was found in Jordan River and photographed on October 19, 2009.

This bird was photographed in the late spring to early summer period at the Iona Island Sewage Ponds in Richmond during the peak time when this species has been encountered in British Columbia. The photograph was taken on June 23, 2000.

Vancouver is consistently named as one of the top five worldwide cities for livability and quality of life and Nanaimo, known as “The Harbour City” is the gateway for other destinations on northern Vancouver Island. We highly recommend planning a day to explore each city’s landscape and culture. We recommend you reserve a spot on the ferry leaving Horseshoe Bay Ferry Terminal, as the wait for sail times can get quite long in the spring and summer months. Part 2 Nanaimo to Port Hardy Ferry 385 km | 4.5 hours Coming out of Nanaimo, take Highway BC-19N toward Campbell River and follow it all the way up to Port Hardy, where you will board a ferry to Bella Coola. This picturesque stretch of highway is chock full of quaint towns, camping and fishing spots, wineries and craft breweries, and so much more. Check out Tourism Vancouver Island for the lowdown on the island’s activities and sights. Port Hardy: A fantastic town at the northern tip of Vancouver Island, Port Hardy serves as a hub for air, ferry and marine transportation networks, and serves as the gateway to the fast-growing Central Coast (part of the Cariboo Chilcotin Coast region). The town also supports several traditional and emerging sectors and remains rich in natural resources and community spirit.

    50th Anniversary Quilt Project 1 Capital Regional District 625 Fisgard Street, Victoria, BC V8W 1R7 250.360.3000 www.crd.bc.ca 2 Celebrating the Region: The CRD 50th Anniversary Quilt Project 3 Foreword The 50th anniversary of the Capital Regional District took place in 2016. To celebrate this milestone, the CRD created a legacy project to showcase the collaboration that has built the region and its sense of connection and inclusiveness. Through this project, the CRD worked with 33 members from the quilting community to design a regional quilt. The quilt is composed of 28 unique blocks that weave a tapestry of the capital region’s stunning landscapes and showcase our community of communities. Each of the 13 municipalities and three electoral areas is represented by one block. The CRD also worked with Tsawout First Nation artists to design three blocks for the quilt. To tie the quilt together, additional blocks were created representing iconic images and locations in our region. In order to create a sense of connection between each block, the quilters were all given the same 10 fabrics as a base and instructed to use those fabrics for 70% of the block. The quilters were then able to choose any other fabric to make up the rest of the block, adding to the uniqueness of the piece. Some of the groups reached out to their local First Nations communities to collaborate and seek permission to include local symbolism and design. The result is a stunning piece of artwork that tells the story of the Capital Regional District.
